Planning Advisory Notes

This document contains planning advisory notes, to be used as guidance when making a planning application. The notes were previously adopted as supplementary planning guidance alongside the now superseded Local Plan to 2001. They can no longer be supplementary planning guidance as they have not been subjected to formal public consultation during the preparation of the Local Plan 2011. They however, contain some information that is still useful and relevant to development control in determining planning applications.
